==Biography==

One of the best cabbies in the galaxy; PJ worked for Galaxy Cab, a taxi service that travels from planet to planet all over the universe. He was the highest fare earner of them all and was noted for his skilled driving that never followed traffic laws. As a result, he often would get involved in high-speed chases with the Galactic Federation Police, but he always managed to elude them. He always considered his worst passengers to be drunks or couples who could not get their hands off each other.

PJworks as a cabbie for Galaxy Cab, a company whose taxis travel from splanet to planet all over the universe. As the biggest earner at Galaxy Cab, he demanded an increase in wages, which resulted in a fight with the owner of the company and wound up earning him a temporary suspension. PJ then saw an article about the F-ZERO races and it changed his life. He took all his savings and transformed his taxi into an F-ZERO machine. Can he really take the driving skills that he forged as a taxi driver and use them to win the Grand Prix?

Due to being the best cabbie in the company, he got into a fight when he demanded an increase in wages (as well as a larger taxi to accommodate passengers up to 30' tall). He ended up getting suspended from his job, leaving him without an income or anything for his taxi to do. However, when he spotted an article about the F-Zero Grand Prix, he decided to retool his taxi cab into an F-Zero machine and enter the race. Despite his suspension, he still races for the company to the extent of advertising their services and wearing his cabbie uniform.

PJ states in his interviews that he has outrun the "police" many times in his taxi and can be assumed to be a reckless but reliable driver/pilot.

Trivia

PJ can be seen in F-Zero GX's story mode in Chapter 3. He is perhaps the only AX character to be seen within the Story Mode of F-Zero GX.

Because F-Zero GX and F-Zero AX were developed in partnership with SEGA, PJ is probably a reference to SEGA's Crazy Taxi series. This makes him the first F-Zero pilot to reference a video game character owned by a 3rd party company. The second pilot to do this is Rick Wheeler.
